I've been pushing to change the 'Forum Rules' menu option to maybe 'Nudes' or 'Porn'.

Upon the first time a user logs in, they should be redirected to the Rules/FAQ section, and have to check a box that says "I have read all of these, and am willing to open myself to mass ridicule by asking a stupid question already covered in this section."

Decent idea but that would have about the same effect as a worn down speed bump.

When you install new software on your computer and the Licensing Agreement window comes up and you have to check the 'I Agree' box to continue, did you read all or even any of the shit in that agreement before checking the box?

yes
 
Once you know the rules and have been around a while it's easy to have all the answers. We were all new at some point and all had to find our way until we got our feet wet.

This fellow had the whereabouts to find the support forum and ask here, which is far better than what many others have done in terms of creating the same thread in the heavies.
It's easy to chastise and tell someone to read the rules and faq's before they do anything else once they join, but it takes less effort to educate and help someone who's genuine in their ask. We were all new once and all needed a push in the right direction in some capacity.

notice thereof from NEAR.
8. TERMINATION CERTIFICATE

correct such error within thirty (30) working days after the date of notification. If Licensee is not
- 3 -
satisfied with the correction, then Licensee may terminate this Agreement, but without refund of

party. NEAR will pay any costs, damages or attorney fees finally awarded against Licensee in
such action which are attributable to such claim, provided NEAR is promptly notified in writing
of such claim, may control the defense and/or settlement of such claim, and is provided with all
requested assistance, information and authority. In the event that a Licensed Program becomes,
or in NEAR's opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement of a United
States patent, copyright or trade secret, NEAR may at its option either secure Licensee's right to
continue using the Licensed Programs, replace or modify the Licensed Programs to make them
not infringing, or provide Licensee with a refund of the license fee less depreciation on a 5 (five)
year, straight-line basis. NEAR shall have no liability for any claim of patent, copyright or trade
secret infringement based on the use of a Licensed Program in any form other than the original,
unmodified form provided to Licensee or the use of a combination of the Licensed Programs
- 4 -
with hardware, software or data not supplied by NEAR where the used Licensed Programs alone
in their original, unmodified form would not constitute an infringement. The foregoing states
Licensee's entire liability for infringement or claims of infringement of patents, copyrights or
other intellectual property right.

NEAR'S LIABILITY TO LICENSEE UNDER ANY PROVISIONS OF THIS
AGREEMENT FOR DAMAGES FINALLY AWARDED SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE
